Budapest, 1944. A city swallowed by war. A girl haunted by the dead. A darkness that feeds on suffering.
As the Arrow Cross terror grips Hungary and Nazi occupation tightens its noose, twelve-year-old Elisheva Klein clings to survival inside the frozen walls of the Budapest ghetto. But when she begins to see the ghosts of murdered children-and a mysterious girl in a red coat who seems to guide them-Elisheva realizes the world of the living is not the only battlefield.
With her younger brother David at her side and a secret network of spirits warning of danger, Elisheva is drawn into a supernatural war. As she uncovers hidden truths with the help of a reclusive Kabbalist and a brave Hungarian boy, Miklós, she must face a monstrous entity known only as The Whispering Man-a being born from war, fear, and blood.
But human cruelty is often worse than what lurks in the dark.
Blending chilling paranormal horror with unflinching historical detail, Ghosts of Budapest is a powerful story of resilience, innocence lost, and the haunting legacy of genocide.
